So, the musical "Lion King" has a song in it where Scar sings, "Tell me I'm adored. Please, tell me I'm adored." We were driving in the van tonight listening to that CD and Ryan says, "Did he just say tell me I'm a dork?" Well, that's all it took. My kids started laughing and we had to listen to it about ten times. Every lyric in the song turned into a lyric about a dork. Dork, dork, dork, dork, dork. With my kids laughing their guts out in the back of the van, and Ry and I laughing in the front, RyLeigh says, "Oh man, that's never gonna get old."

Sydnie and Chad. Two people in my life who keep me laughing. I am so lucky to not only love my job, but to be able to do it with two people I love with my whole heart. Ry and I just got back from our yearly venture to San Diego, Chad and some other friends went with us. At one point in the back seat of the car, Chad and I were crying we were laughing so hard. And Syd? Well, what can be said about Syd. Here is a conversation we had the other day. Me - "Syd, what are you doing next Thursay?" Syd - "What day of the week is that?" Yes folks, that's Syd. In a nutshell. I love them both!!!

Student - "Mrs. Thorne, I am having surgery on my foot this week so I won't be able to dance for the dance audition. Is that okay?"
Me - "Um, how can I give you a dance score if you can't dance?"
Student - "Oh, right. That's a problem?"

Me - "Britton, is that your hand?"
